From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alfonso II of Toulouse (French Alphonse de Toulouse, d.1175/1189 or later) was Count of Toulouse, Duke of Narbonne and Marquis of Provence.
He was the son of Count Alfonso I Jordan of Toulouse and Faydiva d'Uzes. After the death of Alfonso I, his eldest son and Alfonso II's brother Raymond V inherited the County of Toulouse and the Marquisate of Provence. Immediately after his accession, Raymond V made his brother Alfonso co-ruler with him.[1]
In 1171, Roger II Trencavel, Viscount of Béziers, Albi and Carcassonne, swore allegiance to Alfonso II.[2] Sometime between 1175/1189, Alfonso confirmed the donation of King Henry II of England to Chartres Cathedral.[3] After this year, there is no mention of Alfonso. He likely predeceased his brother Raymond, who died in 1194 and became sole ruler upon Alfonso's death without heirs.[2]
